Want to try out this game, is it overly complex?

Hi, factorio space age (unmodded) player here:

I want to try this game as ive seen some cool videos and screenshots on facebook groups.

I'm looking for a similar automation experience with a bit less of a focus on advanced logistics/control circuit logic

The thing is i'm not super high IQ/Pro engineer type, just a regular dude who likes automation genre;

Will Satisfactory be up there on the difficulty/challenge level ? I'm good with figuring out ratios and automating things, but if theres a gap that requires figuring out stuff like combinatos/signaling/finding the optimal design etc.. It might be just trading a source of frustration which ive learnt do deal with for a new one which i havent

Thanks in advance for your attention

Belts in, bots out

Cranks out 240+ red science bottles per minute, i still have ways to go to upgrade the belts/inserters/modules/buildings.

Pardon my negligent use of free will

For when you are forced to play factorio with IQ much too low for trains or circuits, so you resort to bots/barrels

How to resist the mini PC addiction

I am on my second mini PC, first is a refurb i3 6100 hp, second a ryzen 2544 kamrui p1. And i'm already eyeballing the next purchase, it would be nice to own a Mac mini, or a diy barebones. Perhaps a raspberry clone? . It's my bday soon, so why not?.

Maybe it's the publicity algorithms that keep spamming ads with irresistible offers and it figured out im weak to FOMO.

Anyway, how do u guys NOT Buy the next mini PC?
